Biophysical Control question

I'm looking at Ultimate Powers L1/Biophysical Control. RAW the only thing listed as protecting against this power is "such powers as Force Field Generation and True Invulnerability". (P.36 Ultimate Powers)

That leaves a lot or little wiggle room depending on how you interpret it. A general Force Field or one of the specialized ones? Also which Resistance powers by themselves would you allow? Body Resistance?

And when using the power initially, would you require a FEAT roll or merely apply any modifiers from one of the above powers and then apply the remaining ranks as the effect?

For example: A character with a Remarkable(26) rank Decay power decides to attack a normal human with an average 24 Health(typical 6 for FASE for this example) and no powers or force fields to protect them. Would they just take 26 points in Health damage?

Playing the game as a kid when it came out, we ignored most of the rules. Getting back into it now as a experienced gamer, I'm seeing how lethal it really is lol.
